Abstract: A method and system for the automated detection of lesions in computed tomographic images, including generating image data from at least one selected portion of an object, for example, from CT images of the thorax. The image data are then analyzed in order to produce the boundary of the thorax. The image data within the thoracic boundary is then further analyzed to produce boundaries of the lung regions using predetermined criteria. Features within the lung regions are then extracted using multi-gray-level thresholding and correlation between resulting multi-level threshold images and between at least adjacent sections. Classification of the features as abnormal lesions or normal anatomic features is then performed using geometric features yielding a likelihood of being an abnormal lesion along with its location in either the 2-D image section or in the 3-D space of the object.

Abstract: An intraoral semi-custom device for the prevention of chronic tension and common migraine headaches and temporomandibular disorders that are caused by chronic clenching of the posterior mandibular and maxillary teeth by the temporalis muscle. The semi-custom discluder is a small intraoral device which is obtained and modified by an individual wearer. The device includes a trough, curved to correspond to the curvature of the maxillary incisors, from which distally extends a dome shape. The trough is retained by a resilient material, usually silicone, which is placed into the trough by the wearer and then placed over the maxillary incisors by the wearer. The cured silicone acts as a gasket and retains the device around the wearer's upper incisors. Once in place and the wearer their mouth, the dome will come into contact with one or two lower incisor teeth prior to the posterior teeth coming into contact. This renders the temporalis muscles ineffective, preventing high pressure clenching of the posterior teeth, thus preventing tension headache, commom migraine, and temporomandibular disorders. The dome can be modified by the wearer with extension tabs in the event the posterior teeth come into contact with each other prior to the lower incisors contacting the dome.

Abstract: The oxidised nitrogen concentration of a gaseous effluent produced during incineration of domestic waste is reduced by a selective non-catalytic reduction process. Sludges produced during municipal waste water treatment or during industrial manufacturing processes are used as functional chemical agent. Domestic waste (OM) is introduced (1) to a furnace (2) and burnt. Ash is removed form the base of thr furnace (3) and gas (EG) passes up a tower (5) at a temperature of 850-1000 deg.C, where the sludge (CC) is add (25). Sludge (CC) is introduced into the gas stream leaving the furnace (2) by one or more sprays (41) which face downwards, towards the furnace. Compressed air (50) is also fed to the sprays along with water (58) to adjust the solids concentration of the sludge and ammonia (59) at a concentration of about 2% in the form of urea, primary or secondary amines or ammonia. The sludge is adjusted to contain about 20% solids, or which just over half are organic. Sludge may be sprayed from a point, line or surface at one or more positions in the tower (4). Compressed air is used to help form the droplets. The sprays can be easily withdrawn from the tower by moving horizontally on tracks. When outside the tower they can be cleaned with water. After leaving the tower the gas stream is subjected to heating, electrofiltration, a heat exchange condenser, cooling and removal of ash and fine particles.
